About Dr. Huang
Dr. Huang attended Case Western Reserve University for both college and medical school. She graduated summa cum laude, majoring in chemistry and psychology. In medical school she earned Alpha Omega Alpha distinction.
She completed her pediatrics residency at Seattle Children's Hospital. After a year working in Christchurch, New Zealand, she settled in Olympia. She has worked in the South Sound area since 2011.
Frustrated by productivity-based medicine that gave her 5-10 minutes with patients, she became drawn to direct primary care. She describes herself as somewhat of a minimalist when it comes to medicine. She follows the standard vaccine schedule from the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP).
Chronic conditions she knows well include asthma, eczema, allergies and behavioral health issues. Members can reach the doctor by text, email or phone, and appointments last 30 to 60 minutes. Outside work, she enjoys gardening, especially flowers.
